In today's episode, I talk about the key components of an anti-inflammatory diet and share tips on what to include and avoid in your diet to help combat inflammation.

I cover the difference between acute and chronic inflammation and the causes of both. It's our body's job to identify and attack inflammatory agents, but our diets aren't always the cause of inflammation and cannot always be the cure for chronic inflammation. This episode will guide you in creating a dietary pattern that is going to be anti-inflammatory. I dive deep with examples of components to include in your diet, like Omega-3s, fiber, and antioxidants. I also share the importance of reducing our intake of added sugar, alcohol, and deep-fried foods.

I hope this episode helps you look at nutrition in a way that is truly applicable without information overload.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about why there needs to be more to your nutritional approach than just “listening to your body.” What if your body is telling you something that isn’t accurate? What if your appetite cues are off? Does that mean you shouldn’t eat because you’re listening to your body?

Being in tune with your body is important, but it can send you subjective signals influenced by several outside variables. So many things affect our hunger hormones, like sleep and stress. Building a foundation of a balanced, nourishing, satisfying diet will help you stay on track and fuel your body well, no matter the outside variables. With the right information and experience, you can trust yourself to make nutritional decisions that are right for you instead of just trusting your body.
